Past: June 6 → July 5, 2012

Painting, sculpture, architecture. Tradition of ruptures. Thought is plastic. Reflexion dimensions, with multiple meanings. So many questions at the core of this investigation, light!, colour: white. Line, plane, volume, space. Simple. Activate the senses. Detachments, displacements, also in imagination. Painting and sculpture articulate a total space, and autonomy. Perspectives revealed in the movement by the beholder. Include the world’s landscape. Play freely with things, because they are, after all, things. Leave behind the verb, with rigour and emotion.
